What we did:

SSU was responsible for the launch PR for the project, and communication for the project began about 1 year before the launch, gradually building up anticipation and excitement for the actual opening. 

A large volume of coverage was generated through our media outreach using different story angles such as redevelopment of the Shibuya area, foreign brands (tenants) launching in Japan for the first time, “SHIBUYA SKY” (rooftop observation deck) and “SHIBUYA QWS” (co-creative space). SHIBUYA SCRAMBLE SQUARE is now recognized as a new landmark for Shibuya, due to coverage in all local TV networks and nationwide newspapers immediately before and after the launch.
